500ml bottle. Pineapple aroma with notes of peach, mango, herbal hops, floral hops, grapefruit and some pine resiny hops. Pours clear golden colored with a large white head that has excellent retention and lacing. Starts with juicy pineapple, mango, herbal hops and peach flavors. Finishes dry with floral hops, grapefruit and dank pine resiny hop flavors. Another nice ipa from these guys.

375mL bottle. Pours a dull ruddy brown with a slight haze and minimal head. Loads of musty red wine grape skins and red berries on the nose. Flavour has musty grape skins, dried berries, dark fruits, very gentle balsamic. Good level of funk; the pinot noir barrels work very well with the base beer. A work of art.

Tart, vinous, dark malts, light cherry. Decent but typical dark sour. Even Russian River won't get me to like dark sours.

Dull hazy pale brown, thin head. Sticky, phenolic. Not out of line for a quad but these qualities are emphasized over malt character or balance.

Draft at ΓL Beercafe & Bottle Shop in Walnut Creek, California. The pour is a slightly hazed yellow golden with a white foam head that leaves behind thick lace. The aroma is bread, cracker malt, mineral, and a soft herbal spice. The taste is crisp and fresh cracker bread malt, mineral and the herbal spice. The palate is medium to light bodied, unfiltered mouth feel and the crisp clean mineral finish. Delicious and crazy drinkable.

Pale, some haze. There's a nice fruitiness, good malt base, light bitterness. I don't know how much Brewer's Gold I'm getting, but it's nice balanced hop.
